Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation of Mosquito-Borne Disease Transmission
Mosquito-borne diseases, such as chikungunya, dengue, and malaria, are re-emerging and expanding to new and formerly unaffected places, leading to a need for models which can track their evolution and thus help with public policy and epidemiological studies. Such diseases’ evolution is driven by the interactions between hosts and vectors, and is thus heavily dependent on factors like host and v...
متن کاملRNA Interference for Mosquito and Mosquito-Borne Disease Control
RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool to silence endogenous mosquito and mosquito-borne pathogen genes in vivo. As the number of studies utilizing RNAi in basic research grows, so too does the arsenal of physiological targets that can be developed into products that interrupt mosquito life cycles and behaviors and, thereby, relieve the burden of mosquitoes on human health and well-being. A...
متن کاملThe utility of mosquito-borne disease as an environmental monitoring tool in tropical ecosystems.
The intrinsic link between ecosystem health and human health has been firmly established in the literature and has given rise to the development of new multidisciplinary fields of research such as medical geology. An important practical implication of the ecosystem health approach is the utility of human disease outbreaks as indicators of underlying ecosystem disruption. The use of such a bioin...
متن کاملThe Biology of Mosquito-Borne Disease
"Mosquitoes do not surrender to elephants," says Walter Lippman. In this book, P. F. Mattingly discusses some of the secrets that enable mosquitoes to be so courageous. The book is a comprehensive discussion of the natural history of mosquito-borne diseases and the mosquitoes which carry them. It primarily deals with current ecological concepts and succeeds in conveying a wealth of information ...
متن کاملMayaro virus disease: an emerging mosquito-borne zoonosis in tropical South America.
This report describes the clinical, laboratory, and epidemiological findings on 27 cases of Mayaro virus (MV) disease, an emerging mosquito-borne viral illness that is endemic in rural areas of tropical South America. MV disease is a nonfatal, dengue-like illness characterized by fever, chills, headache, eye pain, generalized myalgia, arthralgia, diarrhea, vomiting, and rash of 3-5 days' durati...
